Unveiled (2000) is a novel by Francine Rivers.
Abstract
Book One of a five-volume series (A Lineage of Grace) devoted to female figures in the family tree of Jesus, portraits Tamar, the daughter-in-law of Judah.
"Her name meant "date palm," and like her namesake, Tamar hoped to survive the harsh environment she was placed in: to bend but not to break. Rubbed with scented oil and arrayed in wedding finery, 14-year-old Tamar is thrust into a world of abuse, betrayal, and disillusionment when she is given in marriage to an evil, idol-worshiping man. In the face of her suffering, she must make choices: Will she let her new husband, Er, destroy her innocence and corrupt her? Will she leave the religion of the Canaanites and embrace the God of the Hebrews despite the life of misery she is cast into? Or will she fall into despair and become as wicked as her husband and his brothers?"--Publisher's description.
